Book excerpt: "The Old Soak's debut, The Old Soak and Hail and Farewell, is in the public domain now. Delving into it you'll find a surprisingly callous approach to addiction, far from, say, the complex and often convivial descriptions of binge drinking in John O'Hara's early novels.

He wants to booze it up, but he can't, because of that cursed eighteenth amendment!"--Paris Review

January 1970 finds Ezekiel “Easy” Rawlins, LA’s premier Black detective, at 50 years of age despite all expectations. He has a loving family, a beautiful home, and a thriving investigation agency. All is right with the world… and then Amethystine Stoller, his own personal Helen of Troy, arrives. Her ex-husband is missing. A simple enough case. But even as Easy takes his first step in the investigation he trips. He falls into the memory of things past. Little things, like loss, love, a world war, and a hunger that has eaten at him since he was a Black boy on his own on the streets of Fifth Ward, Houston, Texas. The missing ex, a young white man named Curt Fields, is found dead. Easy’s only real friend in the LAPD, Melvin Suggs, has gone into hiding rather than allow his femme fatale wife to go to the gas chamber. And that’s only the beginning. Easy finds himself pressed into a reckoning. All of his success cannot succor his heart. The 1970’s have ushered in new expectations of men and women, Black and White, and Easy has to make a choice that will almost certainly hasten a permanent descent, one that might sunder his soul.

Book excerpt: This Italian fiction is a true drama about disappointment, with little action but a fantastic psychological breakdown of characters and their circumstances. It is filled with themes of revolt, disillusioned remorse, and willful condemnation as a means to redemption. After a thoughtful reading of this remarkable work, one can find several other significant themes. The title, Addio, Amore! (Farewell, Love!), carries with it the anguished cry of a soul fated to pursue love in a world that seems to have none at all. The characters in this work are induced with sensitive power and sympathetic extent of spirit. The author of this work, Matilde Serao, was a Greek-born Italian journalist and novelist and was the first woman called to edit an Italian newspaper. She was also nominated for Nobel Prize six times. The pressure of a journalistic profession in no way restricted her literary career, and between 1890 and 1902, she produced seven superhit novels, including Farewell, Love!.
